Period former Georgian house presently used as a dance school and flat. Potential for a range of uses, subject to the necessary consents being obtained. The property’s central location makes it well suited to family occupation, with a choice of state and independent primary schools nearby.
Darley House is an attractive Grade II listed Georgian building dating from around 1830. The property is semi-detached and arranged over three storeys and it has rendered stucco walls and a slate roof, and its Carlton Street elevation is framed by striking pilasters.
The main entrance on Carlton Street is set behind cast-iron railings and a small front garden. A separate stairway leads down to the lower ground floor entrance and a light well with a vaulted store.
To the rear, a walled courtyard with herringbone paving has vehicle access and parking for four cars, together with a paved patio, planted borders, two garden stores and a further rear entrance into the building.
The building has retained many of its period character, with several original features still in place.
The property has an EPC Rating of C-72, and is valid until May 2036
Ground and Lower Ground Floors
Two well-proportioned dance studios are formed from the original ground floor reception rooms, both fitted with sprung or vinyl dance floors, wall barres and mirrors, and served by a central entrance hall.
The principal rooms on the ground and first floors have deep moulded cornices, ceiling roses and tall sash windows.
The lower ground floor provides a third studio, changing rooms, WCs, stores and a boiler room.
First Floor
The first floor is accessed from a communal entrance and includes a self-contained two-bedroom flat with its own kitchen, shower room and living room, generously proportioned with good ceiling heights, cornicing and ceiling roses.
The flat is dated in its fittings and decoration and would benefit from modernisation.
